For this dish, buy chicken breasts that are about 1/2-inch thick. Serves 4 2 ears of corn, husks and silk removed 2 teaspoons olive oil plus 1/4 cup additional Table salt and ground black pepper 2 tablespoons lemon juice 2 garlic cloves, minced 3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil 1 tablespoon mustard 1 tablespoon honey 4 boneless chicken breasts (about 5 ounces each), trimmed 1 ripe beef steak tomato, diced Table salt and ground black pepper Ready Begin: Wrap corn in microwave-safe plastic wrap and microwave on high power until slightly softened, about 3 minutes, turning corn over halfway through cooking. Cool slightly and remove plastic wrap. Brush with 2 teaspoons oil and season with salt and pepper. Whisk lemon juice, garlic, basil, and remaining 1/4 cup oil together in small bowl and season with salt and pepper. Transfer 2 tablespoons dressing to medium bowl and whisk in mustard and honey. Pat chicken dry, season with salt and pepper, and toss in honey-mustard mixture to coat. Grill corn and chicken over hot fire. Grill chicken until cooked through, about 3 minutes per side, transfer to platter, and cover with foil. Grill corn until soft and lightly charred, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from grill, cool slightly, and cut kernels from cob. Combine corn, tomato, and remaining dressing (without honey and mustard) in medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Serve corn salad with chicken. http://amboii.fotopages.com/?entry=1628373 Sat, 26 Jul 2008 00:00:00 GMT layari~ http://amboiichek.blogspot.com http://amboii.fotopages.com/?entry=1615800 Tue, 15 Jul 2008 00:00:00 GMT Samosas Spiced Potato Stuffed Pastries Ingredients: Dough: 3/4 teaspoon salt 2 1/4 cups self-rising flour 6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) butter, cut in small pieces 9 tablespoons water Filling: 1 1/2 pounds potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks 1 cup fresh or frozen mixed peas, corn, and carrots 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 1 medium onion, chopped 1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic 1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh ginger 1/2 habenero chile, minced 1/2 teaspoon garam masala spice blend 1/2 teaspoon turmeric 1 teaspoon red chile powder 1 1/2 teaspoons salt 1/2 lemon, juiced 2 tablespoons chopped fresh coriander leaves Vegetable oil, for frying Instructions: To make the dough: Mix the salt and flour in a medium bowl or a food processor. With a pastry blender, incorporate the butter until crumbs have formed. Add the water a few tablespoons at a time, until you can form a ball. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes. Let it rest for about 15 minutes more. You can prepare the dough in advance and refrigerate it. To make the filling: Boil the potatoes until tender. Drain and set aside. If using fresh carrots, chop and simmer in water, to cover, in a small pot. Add the corn and peas to barely cook. Set aside to cool. Heat the oil in a pan and fry the onion until golden. Add the garlic, ginger, and chile and cook for 2 minutes. Add the garam masala, turmeric, chile powder, and salt and cook 2 minutes more. In a bowl combine the mashed potatoes, the onion and spice mixture, carrots, peas, corn, lemon juice, and chopped coriander. Mix well. To assemble the samosas: Divide the dough into 9 equal size balls. On a floured surface, roll each ball into a 5-inch circle. Cut each circle in half. Brush the straightedge side with a little water, fold it in half, and align the two straight sides so they overlap to form a cone shape. Squeeze the edges together to make a tight seal. Place approximately 1 generous tablespoon of filling inside each cone, leaving the top edge clean. Moisten the inside top rim of the cone and press the edges together to make another tight seal. Place the samosas on a tray until ready to fry. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling. Heat approximately 3 inches of vegetable oil in a deep saucepan. Fry several samosas at a time, being careful not to crowd them. When 1 side turns golden brown, flip it over to brown on the other side. Drain on paper towels. Serve with chutney.

Bring to a boil over medium high heat, lower the heat to medium and continue cooking for 10 minutes, or until they have slightly softened but are not cooked through. Add the peas to the boiling water for the last minute of cooking. Drain the water from the potato cubes and peas. Heat the oil in a large frying pan set over medium high heat and add the onions, garlic and ginger. Saute until the onions are translucent. Add the potato cubes, peas, coriander, cumin, pepper and salt and stir until well mixed. Remove from the heat and cool slightly. Turn the finished dough out on a lightly floured surface and divide it into 8 equal balls. Let the balls rest 10 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350øF with the rack in the center position. Lightly spray a large baking sheet with vegetable cooking spray. On a lightly floured surface, roll each ball of dough to a 7" circle, rolling from the middle toward the edge. Distribute the filling evenly among the circles, about 3 heaping tb for each one. Lightly moisten the edge of each circle with water and fold over to form a semicircle. Press the edges together firmly. Fold the pressed edge inward toward the filling and press with you fingertips to seal. Lift the samosas onto the prepared baking sheet and generously brush the tops with the egg glaze. Bake the samosas for 15 minutes, or until they are a rich golden brown. Serve hot from the oven.
